- Great remake, streamlines some elements from the original game while focuses on some other parts.
- The shooting, exploration and puzzle solving is as enjoyable as the original games.
- Enemy types increased to add more interesting combat scenarios.
- Rewards multiple playthroughs and has enough length for it to be fun.
- Microtransactions present and they feel tacked on.

Great, but doesn't hold a torch to the original. Best modern remake for sure. This game is more realistic, but I prefer the gameyness of the original. Also, this game was straining to my eyes, so much detail and things happening at once that I would have to take a break sometimes. I was pretty disappointed with professional mode compared to the original's, they did not change enemy AI at all just made it more frustrating. Though I will complement the regenerators in the remake are vastly better and more scary (they run at you).

Much like RE2 remake, my expectations towards this game ended up being completely different from what I experienced. I did not expect RE4R, a game which I felt was unnecessary seeing as the original still holds up fantastically well, to be my absolute favorite of all the RE games since 7. I expected my feelings towards the game to be indifferent, and what I got what an experience akin to playing the original for the first time all over again. While much of the game I found very familiar with many areas, sequence of events and dialogue being just like the original, there is so much new with this game, in many of the sequences, challenges, mechanics, etc. that it felt like a totally new game. Not only that, but having prior knowledge of the original heavily rewards you in the remake whether it be in the layout of certain areas being carbon replicas, or treasures being in the exact same spot, or bosses having the same weaknesses, even little easter eggs. While I long for some of the segments of the game that were removed, such as the giant Salazar statue's original role, the sniper ski-lift section, etc., enough new good things were added to make up for those missing. The most surprising thing for me was how insanely well-crafted almost every boss fight was. While a couple might have been a bit hard (Salazar is still one of my favorite fights in the game) or lackluster, the majority were very fun and unique, even moreso than in the original. The soundtrack was also surprisingly good for a RE game, which truth be told, the series is not exactly known for. This delves into spoiler territory, but I also very much like what they did with Luis's story in this game, having been completely overhauled, given depth, and made his eventual death making more emotional sense in relation to Leon. HOWEVER, they didn't give Mike a heavy New York accent this time, so I can't forgive that. All in all, a very big surprise for me, as I ultimately ended up loving this game far more than RE2R (of which I ended up having the indifferent opinion towards).

A great remake that takes a solid game and boosts it tenfold. I had a fun time, I laughed, I cried, I got mad, I got scared, and being an avid fan of the original, it was fun seeing what was changed.
This sounds positive but I only gave it 3 stars, the equivalent to a 60%, and why is that?
The difficulty spikes.
Anyone who knows me knows that I always play on the normal, middle ground difficulty, and ONLY change it if its literally near-impossible for me to continue otherwise. At least 5 times I contemplated switching to assisted mode because of this game. Unlike the original, where difficulty scaled with progress of the game, the remake has an absurd amount of difficulty spikes which when added to a lack of invincibility and swarm of enemies, it is sometimes very VERY easy to get sandwiched, or surprised, or smacked three times, during which you can't access your inventory to heal.
You were so, so close REmake, so, so close.

Resident Evil 4Rmk - Eu achei um puta dum jogão zika, a história do jogo nn é tão complexa, qualquer animal intende(eu intendi). Achei muito bom o estilo do jogo a ambientação do jogo, o jogo me dava um puta dum cagasso só de andar assim a toa, a musica do jogo, o suspense no começo, slk quase me caguei, mas mt mídia, pprt
Eu desgostei de poucas coisas no jogo. Eu achei a fdp da Ashley, um imprestável, qualquer merdinha a mina morria, tem que levantar ela quando ela toma um tapa, e demora pra caramba pra ela levantar, dava um tiro no cara que pegou ela e as vezes pegava nela... um saco papo10. O jogo de vez enquando dava umas coisas meio inutil como umas bala de arma que eu nn tinha, e deixou de dar bala da arma que eu queria, umas armas enferrujadas, e umas armas nada ave. Caro pra krl pra upar as armas (mas isso é suave), achei meio bruh repetirem varíos inimigos tb, e uns cachorro fdp que demora pra krl pra morrer. Achei os bosses do Jogo tipo.... mt suave? mais suave do que era pra ser eu acho? tipo, demorei mais pros inimigos normais do que pros bosses do game. Poderia ter sido mais difícil os bosses.
Gostei das sidequests do jogo, nn só fudidas e são bem simples e rapidas, gostei do bagui dos piratas tb, melhorei a mira e aprendi a atirar no jogo com isso. Mas fodase jogo safe.

Un remake con la calidad que hubiera deseado hayan aplicado para el RE3.
Toma todo lo bueno del original, lo mejora y además agrega contenido buenísimo.
Entiendo que va a haber gente que va a seguir prefiriendo jugar al OG, por una cuestion de nostalgia o incluso estética, pero me parece objetivo que RE4R es una version superior a su antecesor, lo cual es RARISIMO para un remake.

10/10 la parte de la isla no me da ganas de pegarme un tiro :)

While I really enjoyed RE 4 remake I can't shake the feeling that in a way it diminishes the legacy of the original. It is a very good game with solid mechanics, great visuals and fun gameplay but at the same time it is just another great RE game and not the best action game ever created by human hand. RE4 remake is not a life changing event and maybe it never had chances to be one, but by playing it safe the game acknowledges that it does not even try to aim at greatness. And without that ambition the whole endeavor feels a bit pointless.
